The annual pro day circuit got started on Monday, when the Packers reportedly had a scout in attendance at the University of Minnesota's workout, and heats up even more on Tuesday.

At least eight schools are holding their pro day on Tuesday, including Auburn, Purdue, Northwestern, Buffalo, SMU, Alabama State, Eastern Illinois and Slippery Rock. The Packers may not have scouts at every single one of them, but you can bet they'll be represented at several of them.

Among the top attractions today are a pair of the top edge rushers in this year's draft class, the type that would play outside linebacker in a 3-4 defense like the Packers run, in Buffalo's Khalil Mack and Auburn's Dee Ford.

Both were prolific sack artists this past season, each coming up 10.5 sacks in 2013.

Mack has already reportedly ran the 40 at his pro day and impressed:
